EDU 45033 SEI METHODS FOR ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS III (3)

The course will examine the format and alignment of ELL Proficiency Standards to the Arizona Language Arts Academic Standards. It will also analyze the content and use of the Stanford English Language Proficiency (SELP) Assessment in guiding ELL instruction, as well as describing the legal, historical and educational reasons for SEI. The course will build upon the systemic foundation and skill development set forth in EDU 44033 and will further identify and use multiple strategies to improve student achievement by integrating: 1. comprehensible input; 2. ongoing, specific and immediate feedback; 3. grouping structures and techniques; 4. building background and vocabulary development; and 5. integrating student engagement.
